Purpose and Fitment

The presented trunk lid is dedicated to the rear body section of the Mercedes CLC CL203 series vehicle. The construction corresponds to factory dimensions and mounting points, which helps maintain the correct body geometry and proper alignment with the bumper, lights, and seals. This allows the part to be used for both accident repairs and replacement of a worn or corroded lid.

Color and Paint Finish

The lid is finished in the Obsidian Black Metallic – 197 shade, characteristic of many Mercedes equipment configurations. The metallic paint finish ensures a visually consistent effect with other body elements in the same color, and with appropriate polishing and potential blending techniques, it allows for minimizing the visibility of differences between the new and existing paintwork.

Characteristics of the Used Part

The trunk lid comes from a used vehicle, meaning it may show signs of wear typical for body components, but it retains its structural functionality. This type of part is particularly useful for repairs where maintaining the original sheet metal structure and compatibility with factory mounting and sealing accessories is a priority.

Benefits of Using an Original Trunk Lid

Using an original trunk lid for the CLC CL203 model helps maintain the stylistic consistency of the body and the proper functioning of the closing mechanism and rear sealing of the vehicle. In practice, this translates to:

• better fit to the body lines and factory mounting gaps,
• maintaining the proper structural rigidity of the rear bodywork,
• easier integration with existing luggage compartment equipment.
